Celiac Hipsters rejoice! Mo:Le is an awesome brunch place, conveniently located in the heart of Victoria's 'hipster district' where you can lock up your bike right outside Mo:Le's entrance, right before being promptly escorted by Mo:Le's friendly servers over to Habit Coffee to sip a delicious americano in the dimly lit corner (or maybe you just left your Raybans on, silly hipster) while you wait for a table to clear up at Mo:Le. This will be your Sunday morning, hipsters and hipster-hopefuls.
But in all seriousness, this is a true story. Mo:Le gets so busy on the weekend that it is not uncommon to wait in a line to get your name on the reservation list, and then be delicately sent over to Habit Coffee next door while you wait for a table. The system, however fragmented it may appear, actually works pretty well. As long as you don't mind being the least cool person in both establishments, you'll be well taken care of. You will be caffeinated, and then nourished...what more could you ask for on a Sunday morning?
Mo:Le is super celiac friendly. All their food is fresh, made to order, and they use many organic, local, and seasonal ingredients. It's always advisable to inform your server you have a gluten-allergy, and that way the kitchen can prepare for any modifications that your breakfast may require. Mo:Le now offers gluten-free toast, which is just fabulous for those of us who are reluctant to pass up our morning carb-overload, but it also provides a good alternative when ordering a dish like eggs benny.
My Favorites:
The Simon Whitfield Yam Omelette: a giant portion, served with pesto hash browns. Bacon goes well with it, if you're not a vegetarian hipster.
Huevos Rancheros: also a giant portion, I like it with a side of bacon.
Bliss Raw Organic Granola: a perfectly sweet option, I get mine with almond milk. And a side of bacon. I wish I was kidding...
